OK, thanks, that's what I thought. I'd suggest that the FAQ artivle be adjusted to
reflect this step, since it's misleading at this point. If server 2 doesn't have
server 1 defined in it's Outgoing Servers entry, the current instructions would cause
an endless loop (the way I understand it).
On a related note, is there a way to have a backup mail server that is backup for some
domains, but is also primary for others? Say a client wants to run their own mail
server, but have us run a backup for them. Well, I'm sure I could code something like
that (store the primary server's IP with the relay domain record, then only forward
mail for that domain through the defined IP using cfx_imsmail), but is there an easier
way?
